Chapter 858: Setting Up Those Who Want To Scheme Part 2
Up in the sect master seats, Kana smiled brightly, hearing Ako"s words. She could only guess that Ako picked up on all the signals that something was not right. Kana leaned over and whispered to Creige: "What do you think she will do next?"
"Hmmm… From what I know about Ako since I first met her is that she is very observant. She is always paying attention, mainly paying attention to you. I am not sure if this is a natural aspect of slimes or if it is because of your contract, but she is always watching. She then uses the information she gathers from watching to make plans for future things. This is why she is always ready with things before you even ask. Such an ability is actually quite good, especially in a situation like this where Ako can use this ability to turn the tables on those who tried to scheme against her." Creige was always watching Kana and those around her. He could care less about anyone else. But when it came to Kana, his eyes would always be watching her, and he would notice the actions of those close to her. That was why he knew so much about Ako because Ako put Kana first before anything else.
"Now that you mention it. She is always there with meat when I start to grow hungry. Or she will have a plate of meat for me when I wake up slightly hungry and wander downstairs in the middle of the night. And then there was the meat platter she had set up at that time when I wanted to cultivate for a few days." Hearing Kana going on and on about meat, Creige could only helplessly shake his head. His wife loved meat so much that she would drool all over just thinking about it.
"Anyway, I am sure we are in for a good show." Criege continued stopping Kana"s meat rampage. Kana pursed her lips and nodded her head. Ako was definitely about to counterattack.
Back on the stage, a small silent standoff was taking place as Ako stared at Old Wen and Old Wen stared at her. "Are you going to let me speak to him?"
Old Wen still couldn"t figure out the safest route. If he said yes, he was in danger. If he said no, he was in danger. Gritting his teeth, he could only step back. He sheathed his sword and could only hope the piece of trash on the ground would not screw this up. He kept trying to send voice transmission, but the stupid kid was not answering him.
Ako smiled as she knelt down next to Tou. "Let me ask you a question. If you answer me honestly and I promise I can reattach this hand of yours and let you leave here with your life. If you lie to me, I will take not only your other hand but your feet too."
Tou, who was enduring pain, looked up at Ako with wavering eyes. If he could just get a chance to walk out of here, he could try to escape and find a place to hide because if he didn"t, he was dead for sure. His great grand uncle would have killed him if this slime girl did not stop him. But to keep himself safe, he had to play it off as if he did not know what Ako was going to ask. "It depends on the question."
"Alright. My question is very easy….. Who gave you this needle?" Ako asked with a small smile on her lips. She could feel the killing intent radiating off the old many at her side. Old Wen wanted nothing more than to draw his sword and cut this d.a.m.n slime girl"s head off. But if he did, he would instantly be proven guilty.
"It was great… It was Old Wen!" Tou did not care anymore. He could feel the killing intent weigh down on him. He was not stupid. But if he was going to be tossed out as trash, then he would take down the person who set this all up. "I originally planned to forfeit. After all, I have no chance of beating you. But Old Wen came to visit me and convinced me to use the needle to control your movement. The needle is like a tranquilizer to demonic beast."
Tou said everything, and the more he said, the angrier Old Wen got. Old Wen"s whole face was bright red and slowly turning purple as his blood rushed to his brain. His hand hovered over the hilt of his sword. He was doing his best to restrain himself, but this trash outed him without the slightest bit of hesitation! Ako chuckled as she took the hand she was holding and handed it to Tou. "Hold on to this."
As she said that, she stood up and looked at Old Wen, her eyes cold. "So you wanted to deal with me? Why is that? Is it because my Master made you do something you did not want to? Did your pride get to you? You wanted to regain some of the face you lost when you were confronted by Master. But since you did not dare do anything to Master, you decided you would teach me a lesson. Since you can not defeat the strong, you decided to attack the weak. But sadly for you…."
Ako raised her hand and showed the needle that was resting between her thumb and index finger. She then stabbed it into her body without hesitation and to a dumbfounded Old Wen. "You see, first of all, I am a slime. Since when do slimes have blood? Secondly, this tiny bit of poison would have been wiped clean as soon as it entered my body. And third, I am no normal demonic beast. I am a divine beast and also a new breed of slime. I am more human than I am demonic beast.
After saying all this, Ako tossed the needle to the ground and played with her sword as she gazed at Old Wen with a small smile on her face."Now then, how should we deal with you?"
